Andy Katz has released his final Top 25 Preseason Poll for College Basketball, and the Terps have earned the 17th spot on the list. 

Greivis Vasquez‘ decision to return gives Gary Williams the ammunition he needs to build a tough-minded, gritty bunch once again, with eight of the team’s nine top scorers back.

This is an accurate ranking for the Terps heading into the season.  Everyone knows what Greivis can do for this team, and Bowie, Milbourne and Mosley will also continue to improve and contribute.  If Jordan Williams and James Padget can contribute at a high level from the start of the season, look for the Terps to be ranked even higher.
